However, out ide of the nervous system and the ligestive tract, alcohol used as a everage has little demonstrable ffeet. Food?

Senator Kennedy was as colorful in Charlotte as he has been at other points along his campaign trail. The Charlotte Coliseum was packed t a near capacity crowd. People had come from all over the state of North Carolina to hear the candi date of the Democratic Party. Ten ,ion grew as the arrival time of Senator K e n n e d y approached.

Registration Is Not Fatal lY Bonnie Miller Staff Writer Registration day, later tagged a! the Communistic way of discourag ing American education, was face last Wednesday with the same com hined feeling of dread and anticipa tion as our original D-Day.

Janet Robermn Staff Writer Soviet Premier Khrushchev has had a variety of receptions during h. globe-circling travels, but last .londay when his ship-the Baltika -pulled into dingy pier 73 on New York's East River, he received a dis inal and aloof greeting. The dilapidated pier had a wel comIing delegation of Soviet diplo mats who had waited for a couple of hours in the rain for their leader. l There. were no pickets on the pier; they were on the other side of the East River Drive, carrying signs reading "Stop Communism today; it may he too late tomorrow," "Go Home, Khrushchev," and "Franken stein." Among the picketers were refugees from the Eastern Bloc and native New Yorkers. Arrival Speech In his arrival speech, Khrushchev said that he would do his best to establish a stable relationship be tween the U. S. and Russia at the - U.N. General Assembly meetings. le advocated universal peace, and strict international control of dis armament which he thinks is the most crucial international issue. Secretary of State Christian Herter is a little dubious about the remarks that Khrushchev made ad vocating universal peace and inter national disarmament. He feels that most of Khrushchev's speeches are filled with propaganda and have no real meaning behind them. Negotiations with Russia will never reach satisfactory conclusions so long as Khrushchev wants com munist supremacy. The United States will not allow the "Trouble maker" to become dictator of the f world. The communist movement will not overthrow the desire for world peace and freedom. Dr. Moore Dr. Moore of the USC Interna - tional Studies Department had this to say about the Soviet Premier's a visit to the U.N. "Khrushchev's diplomatic offen sive seems to be transferring itself to the arena of the United Nations," - Dr. Moore stated, "which indicates the importance this growing organ ization plays in mediating disputes > in those in-between areas of the world where the forces of Com munism and Freedom compete for supremacy." r Mr. Tullock of the same depart r ment simply said, "I regret that I hurricane Donna came through a little too early." dAMEL Shields King, Ust midemt wit of her trip.
